Dougie Maclean Inside The Thunder CD (2006)

Craigie Dhu

$14.55

The pervading mood on Inside the Thunder, Dougie MacLean's first album in several years, is sadness. The title comes from "Song for Johnny," a tribute to the late Johnny Cunningham, who was once replaced by MacLean in the band Silly Wizard. "It seems we never learned to play it slow," MacLean sings, "We just danced inside the thunder." But on the album, he seems to have learned finally to play it slow. These are deliberately paced songs with attractive folk-rock arrangements, many of the instruments played by MacLean's son Jamie MacLean, who also produced, engineered, mixed, and even mastered the record. MacLean sings them wistfully and with occasional touches of anger. His imagery has a traditional turn; the language often refers to nature (as often in a mystical as a realistic sense), monarchy, and rural work. In fact, ...

Mychael Danna Celtic Tale CD (1996)

Craigie Dhu

$14.29

This version of A CELTIC TALE is narrated by Fiona Ritchie, host of The Thistle and Shamrock on NPR. A CELTIC TALE is an ambitious undertaking from the brothers Danna, a musical interpretation of the Irish legend of Deirdre, the beautiful lass who, engaged to the King of Ulster, falls in love with another. Her tale of prophesied doom, romantic longing, and bloodshed is told with great sensitivity and power, always haunting but never melodramatic. The enclosed booklet recounts the tale, although, like a great film score, knowledge of the story isn't necessary to enjoy the music. Early in the song cycle, the Dannas paint pastoral images with standard Celtic folk instruments and sweetly melancholy phrases. Harp, bodhran, Uillean pipes, tin whistle, various flutes, and mandolin recreate verdant fields and dark forests. As the tragedy unfolds, the sound becomes orchestral, almost stately. A martial theme with fife and drums introduces Dierdre's love interest, the hunter Naois. Later, a lively Irish reel sets the stage for ...

Best Of Donal Lunny CDs (2001)

Craigie Dhu

$20.35

Recorded between 1978 and 2000. Includes liner notes by Donal Lunny. Dónal Lunny needs at least a two-CD set to collate his musical high points over the last few decades; a box set might even be more apt. But you take what you get, and for the most part it's a magnificent collection, even if placing things in chronological order would have been easier. As it is, you slip back and forth through the decades with probably the most important person in modern Irish music. From the Bothy Band and Planxty, the two seminal Irish bands of the '70s (and, curiously, Planxty is represented by "Smeceno Horo," rather than anything Irish). However, that comes right after "Tribute to Peader O'Raida," a Moving Hearts piece that was far too long when first issued, ...

Lydia Mccauley Foreignlander CD (2004)

Craigie Dhu

$13.29

When you hear songs this beautiful being performed by a woman with this kind of obvious love and devotion for them, you naturally want to praise her. In Lydia McCauley's case, though, there's a problem: as a singer, she just doesn't seem to be up to the task. The problem isn't her voice per se -- her voice is warm and attractive, and she stays on pitch pretty reliably, but she sings with a pronounced vibrato that is just a bit too slow and loose, and her phrasing is just a bit too uncontrolled, and as a result, many of these songs sound like they're being guessed at rather than authoritatively sung. These twin tendencies are especially disappointing on otherwise attractive arrangements of "The Cuckoo" and "One Morning in May." The instrumental tracks fare better -- McCauley is a fine pianist and arranger, and her original composition "Swallow's Return" is very nice, as is her setting of "Margaret's Waltz." The album's highlight is a lovely instrumental medley consisting of "Skye Boat Song," "Shenandoah," and "The Water Is Wide." There is also a wonderfully soft and gentle rendition of the classic revival song "Softly and Tenderly." Not bad overall, but the vocals need a bit more discipline. ~ Rick Anderson CAPTIVATING MUSIC FROM THE APPALACHIAN MOUNTAINSThey came across the ocean from the British Isles.They sang the songs of their homeland in a new country.They lived, loved, and died here.This is the music of the ForeignLander.Lydia McCauley documented folk music at the prestigious Appalachian Music Archive in Berea, Kentucky in the early 1980's and studied with some of the best folk musicians in the Appalachian region. Known today as a songwriter, McCauley returns to her roots in her fifth album, ForeignLander; a collection of innovatively arranged pieces from 17-20th Century Appalachia, beautifully performed by McCauley and her touring Ensemble, along with special guests. While careful to preserve Appalachian traditions in this album, ...
